OMRON ZX-GIF41 (01) PDF MANUAL

Do not use the Smart Sensor in locations subject to explosive or flammable gases.

To ensure safety in operation and maintenance, do not install the Smart Sensor near high-voltage equipment or power devices.

Do not apply voltage exceeding the rated voltage (24VDC +10%, -15%).

When supplying power to the Sensor, make sure that the polarity of the power is correct, and do not connect to an AC power supply.

Do not short-circuit a load for outputs.

Do not lay a power supply cable for the Smart Sensor together with high-voltage lines or power lines. Doing so, or placing them into the same duct would cause induction and lead to malfunction or damage.

When the Controller is connected and used mutually, Please use this product by combining specification.

Do not attempt to disassemble, repair, modify, deform or burn this product.

When disposing of the Smart Sensor, treat it as industrial waste.

Please contact our branch and the office after it turns off power when you feel abnormality by any chance.

Detailed information for the functions and operation of the ZX-GT-series Smart Sensors is available in an Operation Manual (Cat. No.SCHE-746), which is sold separately. Ask your OMRON representative for details.

Locations subject to strong electromagnetic fields or in an environment where the operation of the Sensor is subject to the reflection of intense light (such as other laser beams or electric arc-welding machines.)

Locations where the ambient temperature exceeds the rated temperature range.

Locations subject to rapid changes in temperature (causing condensation).

Locations where the relative humidity exceeds the range of 35% to 85%.

Locations subject to corrosive or flammable gases.

Locations where dust, salt, or metallic powder accumulate on the Sensor.

Locations subject to direct vibration or impact.

Locations subject to direct sunlight.

Locations subject to exposure to water, oil, chemicals, etc.

Locations subject to strong electromagnetic or electrical fields.

When using a commercially available switching regulator, ground the FG (frame ground) terminal.

If the power supply line is subject to surges, connect a surge absorber that meets the conditions of the usage environment.

Do not connect/disconnect the Controller from the Interface Unit with power on, or it might get damaged.

After turning ON the power, allow the Smart Sensor to warm up for approximately 10 minutes prior to use. The circuitry is not stable immediately after turning the power ON, and the values gradually change until the Sensor is completely warmed up.

Always turn OFF the power supply before adjusting or removing the Sensor Head.

Do not use thinners, benzene, acetone, or kerosene for cleaning the Sensor Head or Controller.

The clamps provided with the Unit can be used to secure the serial communication cable.

After mounting the Unit and Controller to DIN Track, press the Unit against the left side of the Controller.

Press the Unit toward the front.

Lift the front of the Unit.

Note: The controller communication error indicator will be on for 1 second after the power supply is turned ON, but this does not indicate an error.

The software may be used only when the user agrees with the terms specified in the License.txt file in the setup desk.

① Mount the front of the Unit to the DIN Track.

② Press the rear of the Unit onto the DIN Track.

Note: Always mount the front of the Unit first. Mounting strength may decrease if mounting is performed in the reverse order.

There is a switch on the bottom of the Unit. This switch must be left in the factory-set position shown in the diagram. If the switch is changed position, communication do not work.

For the NPN type output, connect the load between the respective output wire (e.g., Purple for D0, Red for D1, etc., up to Red/White for D11) and the positive terminal of the power supply (Brown DC12-24V). The common (GND) is Blue (0V). The GATE output is also NPN.

For the PNP type output, connect the load between the respective output wire (e.g., Purple for D0, Red for D1, etc., up to Red/White for D11) and the negative terminal of the power supply (Blue GND(0V)). The positive supply is Brown (DC12-24V). The GATE output is also PNP.
